Spring 2016

I’m tempted to call this our “Special Painting Issue,” because it really does focus pretty closely on that aspect of the art form. We have three really superb painters explaining how they do what they do. Laurie J. McNeil takes us step-by-step through the painting of a long-tailed duck smoothie, Keith Mueller explains how he made his toucan so colorful, and Al Jordan applies the paint to his great horned owl. So you really have three master classes in wildfowl painting, and they cover both oils and acrylics.
